Nowadays television plays such an important role in pepople' s life that watching TV has become part of people' s life in many families. Is TV a blessing or a curse? Obviously television like anything else has more than one face.
As is known to us television presents a vivid and colorful world for people. Through TV people can learn what is happening across the world and are better informed of the latest development in science and technology. TV broadens people' s scope of knowledge. In this senseTV is a blessing. However television can also be harmful. The rays sent out from TV screen are harmful to people. Furthermore attacted by their favourite programmes many people tend to watch TV too often or for a long time. And as aresult their studies and work may be neglected. Especially ifchildren stay up too late at night watching TV they will feel sleepy in class the next day and thus they will fall behind in their studies.
电视是福还是祸
现在电视在人们的生活中扮演了十分重要的角色，看电视已成为人们生活的一部分。电视究竟是福还是祸?很显然，电视像其他的事物一样，有利也有弊。
众所周知，电视为人们展示了一个生动多彩的世界。通过电视，人们能得知现在世界上正在发生的事情，更好地了解科学技术的最新发展。电视扩大了人们的知识面。从这个意义上说，电视是福。但是，电视也是有害的。电视屏幕发出的射线对人们有害。此外，受他们喜欢的电视节目的吸引，许多人常常长时间、过多地看电视，结果学习和工作都被忽略了，特别是孩子们如果晚上熬夜看电视，第二天上课时就会困倦，从而影响学习。
我认为，电视本身既不是福也不是祸。理智利用电视可以产生很好的效果，否则，就会产生不好的影响。
